Given she's been on the wrong side of the last two referendums (referenda?) she's contested, she doesn't have a (moral) leg to stand on.

Of course that's never stopped her chirruping in the past.

well she won't be getting my vote this time round (I voted for indy) and hopefully some of the other indy voters will realise that breaking away from Europe is more important than breaking up with Britain.

You would rather be ruled by the neo-fascist tories and UKIP Platini? You disappoint me, and I suspect, many of your fellow Tims.

The EU scum have more impact on people's every day lives, than the clowns at Westminster ever did. Globalism is the enemy of the people, not capitalism.

Platini - is spot on.  A fair number of YES voters last time round will NOT vote yes again.  Let her have another indy vote and this time when she loses she can then go away for good

What about all the Remain voters who voted No at the last IndyRef? How will they vote if asked again?

It will surely be one of the most peculiar acts of Statespersonship of all time, were Sturgeon to restore the sovereignty of Scotland, only to surrender it a short while later?

I voted INDY 1st time and until a few weeks ago would not have voted again due to immigration rules.I know this won't effect me too much but it will effect the younger Scottish generation.

The SNP nutters will hold a peaceful protest though and Westminster will fold to all demands

I wonder how the SNP true followers earn money as all they do is march march and march some more

i wouldnt think it would be too difficult to get permission off pm for referendum

it doesnt look like she would win at the moment , so probably wait until after next election ?
By:

When: 17 Jan 17 23:27
Maybe she would win now

The 1st INDY ref YES voters would be split i would think

But surely all the SNP die hards would vote INDY as they all ant to stay in the EU

Be funny watching this one play out Laugh

I wouldn't vote unless like i say the FREE MONEY rule came into place 100% the day after the vote
By:

No even just SNP voters for EU Ref

62% voted to Remain while 38% backed Leave.

Every council i think wanted to stay

We're running with a £15 billion deficit currently and yet we announces this. Get votes at any cost is the cry.
Sturgeon has abandoned her responsibilities to govern Scotland by managing it's income to benefit the country as a whole in favour of securing votes and support for indyref2.

It's an irrelevance.  US frackers can make ample money at $55-60 a barrel.  Almost no new fields in the North Sea are profitable at that price. Decommissioning costs are in the £50-60 billion range.  The UK or Scottish govt will be responsible for most of this.  Scottish exports to the rest of the UK are 5x greater than to the EU but she wants to preserve the latter in preference? The SNP are running up big deficits in Scotland, while apparently degrading the education and health systems.  SNP politicians are showing themselves to be as venal, corrupt, sexually dodgy, alcoholically-challenged as any other party - hey, most of them would have joined any other party if they thought there was more in it for them. The Scottish electorate are too smart to vote for poverty and North-Korean-style oblivion. And when it come to 'neverendums', look at Quebec. In Quebec, it caused the most spectacular case of "planning blight" in recent history. The perpetual uncertainty about Quebec's political and economic future drove the corporate headquarters out (they moved to Toronto), and the immigrants and the investment went elsewhere (I quoted the last sentence from a Canadian paper - ta).  And if the Scots ever voted to leave - the English would take out their money and the talent (what's left - note all celebrity Independence supporters live anywhere but Scotland) would go south. Thankfully it's never going to happen.

Thank you Donny for actually answering my question. So it's a NO then? Sturgeon cannot hold a binding referendum without Westminster's permission? Personally, I cannot see any PM giving that go ahead for generations, who the feck wants to go all through that upheaval again? Oh, yeah, the losers I suppose, same as all the Remainers and Clintonistas.

The youngsters are all SNP lovers so i can't see it changing soon

The new generation are all clueless they think technology in supermarkets and Banks etc is all good well that is gonna cost them jobs in the future.

It's like Jobcentre staff striking people off and now 6 Glasgow Jobcentres are to close.They strike people off without realising they won't be needed it no one is there to sign on.

I hope they people who sanctioned the POOR will find new work Grin

Don't worry about deficits when you can print your own currency you don't even understand the basics of what
money is all about so don't come the I know I voted leave coz I'm cleverer than you you're not!. you're pretty
stupid I reckon your I.Q is average or less but unfortunately people like you can't work out your own finances
and blame the E.U. for everything, you like to make fun of people who know more than you as it makes you feel
good you throw names about but basically have no understanding of anything further than the I won you lost
in a referendum..Unfortunately this Country is full of Nutters like Paul Nuttall who know ........ but as
you have been dragged into the blame game you joined them you are not your own person but a figment of some
person who died years ago but you come back to haunt our Country on the back of fake Nationalistic Rhetoric
You're not English or Scottish or Welsh or Northern Irish you're anti European because they speak a different
Language to you and you won't make an effort to speak their language or understand them you are everything that is bad
in this country you have turned our Country into an embarrassment in Europe and the rest of the World ..Don't
believe your hype it's not here forever it's temporary rubbish and will end up in the bin along with Farage and
his Conservative hangers on Be yourself don't give in to politics and bullshit welcome people you meet and they
will respect you,if you Ignore them and despise  them  don't be surprised if they come back and bite you ..
